Learn how to build resilience in your kids while avoiding the emotional toll of undue responsibility.
True healing begins when the adult self takes charge.

Understand the necessity of setting boundaries between your adult responsibilities and inner child dynamics to foster authentic healing. And finally, discover how personal growth and taking responsibility for your adult self can lead to joy, fulfillment, and a life free from chronic pain and anxiety.

Join me on a personal exploration of growth and self-discovery as I reflect on the profound lessons learned since last October. Time may fly by, but it's in these moments we can truly embrace who we are, shedding layers we didn't even know we wore.

It's downright overwhelming. And, I've been asked many times why, I, as a physical therapist have chosen such a "non-traditional" approach. In short? Because my goal is to help people heal their pain while connecting deeper to their bodies. I'm uninterested in doing things that won't work.
So listen in to this episode to learn why connecting with your body's wisdom is so crucial.

Emotional triggers are both more common with chronic pain because our nervous system is already hypervigilant...and then BECAUSE of emotional triggers, we can then further exacerbate the hypervigilance. But there is GOOD NEWS. We can absolutely respond in a different way to an emotional trigger that doesn't feed into the threat response. Listen in to hear the 5 steps to taming your triggers

So much of this work is about coming back to our true, authentic selves. But what does that even mean?? What if you don't know who you are, and what is even authentic to you? First off, you are SO not alone. I'm still figuring it out for myself. And today, I have a special guest, one of my favorite people - Carlos DelaPlaya to talk through exactly this.
Carlos DelaPlaya is a life + self-expression coach. As a self-proclaimed “Prince of Magnetism,” Carlos supports recovering people-pleasers, the “weirdos” of society, mystics, artists, creatives, and LGBTQIA+ to “step into their villain era,” take up space, setting boundaries, and more.
Carlos is also an expert on challenging painful emotions such as grief, rage, shame and the “shadow” parts of the human experience, helping his clients learn to navigate those moments and transmute them into personal superpowers and deep self-intimacy.

If you haven't heard of Dr. Schubiner (or even if you have), then this is an absolute must-listen. Thanks to him, we have massive research supporting mind-body medicine and a completely different understanding of chronic pain & how to treat it effectively. Together we discuss how to take back your power from pain, and well-researched methods to unlearn your pain. We also dive into how perfectionism, pressure & people pleasing can all play a role in keeping pain around. "A certified Internist for nearly 40 years, Dr Schubiner is a prominent advocate of using Mind-Body medicine and therapies to treat chronic pain symptoms. He is an author of several books including 'Unlearn Your Pain', and his latest work, entitled 'Unlearn Your Anxiety and Depression'. He has also been featured in a recent film release called 'This Might Hurt' that follows three chronic pain patients who have each spent years trying to cure their symptoms through modern medicine, without success. Previous to his medical career Dr Schubiner practised mindfulness and meditation teaching, which later served as the perfect combination of spiritual connection and mind-body medicine approach to offer to his patients and students of his work. Dr Schubiner is one of the leading physicians in the mind-body chronic pain management world. His procedures follow the same principles that Dr. Sarno taught, including carefully assessing each patient for diagnosis then addressing the patient's mindset and emotional regulation. He writes regular blog posts, talks at specialist events and participates in curable's live webinars and other online content such as podcast interviews regularly. Dr Schubiner's website is packed with great information" (Bio taken from mytmsjourney.com)

In today's episode we look at a very common belief that prevents making changes (for the better!) in your life - and will also block healing. But we often KEEP believing it because we actually think that it will HELP us change. So it is crucial to recognize if this is a pattern happening in your own life, as it can easily suck us in & keep us spinning in a vicious cycle of stuckness.
Also - stay to the end to hear a super exclusive, ridiculously limited, ridiculously life-changing offer that is unlike ANYTHING I've ever offered before!

I struggled with being able to listen to my body for YEARS. And so do the vast majority of women I work with in chronic pain. It feels like a vicious cycle we get stuck in - "your pain/body is sending a message" but then what happens when you can't hear the message?
In this episode, I cover a common reason many are unable to hear the messages their body is sending - and what to do about it!
One of the most common questions I get asked is, "how do I know if X is right for me?". "What if I try mind-body work, but it is actually a physical issue?" "What if it something that needs more medical attention?"
In this episode I distill this HUGE topic down to the most important pieces you need to know to help you get to the point where you can feel confident about your decisions on your chronic pain healing journey.

Anna Holtzman is a chronic pain recovery therapist and coach. She got into this work through her own recovery process from over ten years of chronic migraines. And through the work she now guides her clients through, she found her way from fear to freedom.

In this episode, I have the honor of interviewing my mentor, Dr. Valerie Rein, author of "Patriarchy Stress Disorder" (if you don't already own it, go buy it now!). This episode is full of richness as we dive into how understanding the patriarchy is actually crucial for our healing journey. Next we explore intergenerational trauma, some misconceptions in the self help world on what it means to be authentic, and then lastly, dive into what it means to pursue desires - and how to even tell if the desires are true to you, or just another manifestation of a "should" we place our ourselves. This conversation was SO SO good & I cannot WAIT for you to get to listen in!
Dr. Valerie Rein is a psychologist and women’s mental health expert who has discovered Patriarchy Stress Disorder (PSD) and created the only science-backed system for helping women achieve their ultimate success, happiness, and fulfillment by healing the intergenerational trauma of oppression. She holds an EdM in Psychological Counseling from Columbia University and a PhD in Psychology from the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology. Her #1 Amazon bestselling book, “Patriarchy Stress Disorder: The Invisible Inner Barrier to Women’s Happiness and Fulfillment” has been heralded by reviewers as "the most important body of literary work of our modern times" and "perhaps the most important book of the century for women." Dr. Valerie's cutting-edge programs have helped thousands of women shift from “how much can I bear?” to “how good can it get?", from survival to thriving, in their work and personal lives. Here are some great opportunities to get connected with Dr. Valerie: 1) Download the first chapter of Dr. Valerie’s book AND book resources. 2) Follow her on Instagram -- or on Facebook - feel free to tag and DM her!

Today is a special episode of the UCP podcast because we have our first ever guest!!! Welcome to Dr. Tawny Kross. Today we discuss all things nerdy, especially pain science. We also go into why humor is such a crucial (and fun!) thing to bring in during your healing journey.
Dr. Tawny Kross graduated with her Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Duke University in 2013.
She has worked in a Veterans Affairs hospital for nearly a decade now. Through the course of her practice, she has developed a very comprehensive and integrative approach to PT, which evolved from the necessity of such an approach in her work with the complexities of those who have chronic pain. This includes nutrition, hypnosis, guided imagery, mindfulness among other practices.
Focusing on mental health and being trauma-sensitive is of particular importance, as many of her clients have experienced military sexual trauma. She helps her clients move beyond pain and fear by connecting them with internal motivations, guiding them to see innate strengths and realize their inner healing abilities.
She recently started her own business, Kross Centered Care - Integrative PT, Health and Wellness in order to bring her expertise to more people.

In this episode we dive into intentionally sitting with discomfort. Which sounds weird, until you realize that we spend so much of our energy desperately trying to avoid discomfort (which doesn't even work). If you're in chronic pain, you're no stranger to discomfort as it is - what if you could choose to use it as something to fuel you, rather than exhaust you?

Soundbites are EVERYWHERE. And they aren't necessarily wrong - they are often discussing an outcome though, and jump past the work it can take to achieve that outcome.
So we read these, and then beat ourselves up for not having already achieved them!
Nuance is KEY. In this episode, I discuss this pervasive issue, and then talk about 3 common "sound bites" I hear that when interpreted in certain ways become more harmful than helpful.
One of them is "no pain, no gain" - my take on it might surprise you! Listen in to hear the rest!

All too often, trauma is dismissed because it 'wasn't that bad' or it 'doesn't count', but underneath all of this, there is a very real physiological reaction that is occurring that is leading to nervous system sensitization & therefore, chronic pain. In this episode, I offer a different take on trauma, and why the word 'trauma' is problematic in the first place - and offer an alternative way to look at it. Whether or not you think you have trauma, if you have chronic pain, you MUST listen in to this episode. I'll let you in on what doesn't work in addressing, this...and of course...how you can actually heal this & decrease your nervous system sensitivity in the process.
